RE: Alpha "wepon"

It would not surprise Alpha fans to see Alpha become a big runner for CPQ. Alpha has survived years and years of "stealth marketing" by DEC and always has been under a cloud of "DEC may go out of business tomorrow" (I've heard that IBM and HP salespeople routinely use that line to get contracts from DEC when the bidding is close).
I CPQ throws it's weight behind Alpha then it could seriously hurt Sun's Sparc in the UNIX (and perhaps NT) workstation market and become the NT server processor of choice for mid to high end servers.
